Make sure you go slow and don't overheat the axle, bit, or taps when you do it, or they could break in the axle.

or you will be hella fucked as that is hardened steel

Albie, those welds look great! Tao style gusset is sexy as well.

getzafive, I am pretty sure I have a few extra 3/8-24 taps at home. I bought a bunch a few years ago when I modded a couple 14mm axled hubs to use G-Bolts. Let me know if you need a tap (if you are in the states I could send you one for a few bucks).

my wheel is old as fuck and spokes wont stop snapping. spent at least 50 dollars on  replacementspokes. happy to do it though, cuase i use different colored spokes and now i have a rainbow wheel. fucking glands dont do shit to keep the spokes J's from getting all warped around the wide ass ratched flanges.

Moved my bars back a tad and all of a sudden bar spins became easier. Started going a little faster on 3s as well. Once I get a decent dry day out I want to go out and get a few dumb clips on shit I've been wanting to ride for a while.

I relearned barspins for what feels like the millionth time. Did a couple flyout, then got a decent hop bar, then did a good 180 bar on a bank. Felt good.

Took off my bpe pedals because I'm sick of purple. Put on my primo grips because they are thicker. Put on some long Lino pegs that I purchased from Sean and then put it in the back of my car to ride after work but it's raining now so I probably won't be riding tonight.
